Does single-site atrial septal pacing synchronize atrial depolarization in patients with drug-refractory paroxysmal AF and delayed interatrial conduction?
Single-site atrial septal pacing can successfully synchronize atrial depolarization and shorten interatrial conduction time in patients with delayed interatrial conduction.
